greycat: says ca-certificates-java is already newest version
tomcres 2017-02-01 10:49:22
wedgie did you specify -t jessie-backports?
wedgie 2017-02-01 10:50:10
tomcres: no. Doing that seems to have done the trick :) Thanks!

Can anyone recommend some CD Ripping software? Would like to convert some CD's to flac and mp3. I know I could probably download them but I have the CD's here so would rather do it myself.
greycat 2017-02-01 10:59:23
I use abcde
greycat 2017-02-01 10:59:37
(with cdparanoia doing the actual ripping, and vorbis-tools for encoding to ogg vorbis)
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:00:04
I use asunder
Cueball 2017-02-01 11:01:19
Thanks greycat and tomcres Will check those out.
greycat 2017-02-01 11:02:37
If you want MP3 output files, I would use lame as the encoder.

Hello, should I be concerned about this, do I need and can I get this firmware?

X crashes whenever I try to launch a video. The x-window-manager process is also using 20TB of virtual memory. I'm on Debian 8, using the opensource graphics drivers
ambient 2017-02-01 11:27:59
SuperTramp83, Thanks, I see the driver is no big deal.
teraflops 2017-02-01 11:28:00
20TB of virtual memory!?!?

squigz what video hardware?
squigz 2017-02-01 11:29:24
tomcres: An AMD HD 7770
SuperTramp83 2017-02-01 11:30:04
ambient, exactly, yw!
squigz 2017-02-01 11:33:07
Is there any easy way to re-install X and all the components?
squigz 2017-02-01 11:33:16
I've had troubles doing that in the past, I've found it easier simply to reinstall Debian :P
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:34:01
honestly, I've had problems with radeonsi and jessie. I found it easier just to use the fglrx driver.
squigz 2017-02-01 11:35:04
I gave up on the proprietary driver :P
squigz 2017-02-01 11:35:17
I forget all the reasons, but I remember one was it was hard to setup my 3 monitors
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:35:43
have you tried using the updated kernel and drivers from jessie-backports?
squigz 2017-02-01 11:35:50
No
squigz 2017-02-01 11:36:05
I'll try that
squigz 2017-02-01 11:36:08
but how?
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:36:17
!jessie-backports
dpkg 2017-02-01 11:36:17
Selected packages intended for the Debian 9 "Stretch" release but recompiled for use with "Jessie" (8.x) can be found in the "jessie-backports" repository. Note that jessie-backports are on the regular mirror network, not on backports.debian.org. A suitable line for your sources.list is «deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ jessie-backports main». Also ask me about .
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:36:59
what it says, but add "contrib non-free" to the end as you'll probably also want the latest firmware-linux-nonfree from backports, too
squigz 2017-02-01 11:37:21
I have 100 upgrades to get. Can I enable backports and then update and upgrade?
Brigo 2017-02-01 11:38:05
squigz, yes
squigz 2017-02-01 11:38:20
Oh I already have the main contrib and non-free backport sources
squigz 2017-02-01 11:38:27
Sorry about that
TomTomTo1 2017-02-01 11:38:27
you really don't want to upgrade with backports pinned high.
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:38:42
once you add that to /etc/apt/sources.list, do apt update, then you can apt -t jessie-backports linux-image-amd64 xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu firmware-linux-nonfree
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:39:05
oops... apt -t jessie-backports install ...
squigz 2017-02-01 11:39:07
tomcres: I already had the backports added, i didn't remember though
squigz 2017-02-01 11:39:13
Do I just do the apt install?
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:39:27
yes
squigz 2017-02-01 11:40:10
Alright, things are about to happen
squigz 2017-02-01 11:40:12
Reboot after?
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:40:32
yes
squigz 2017-02-01 11:40:37
cool, wish me luck
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:40:45
doesn't hurt to cross fingers either :-)
squigz 2017-02-01 11:42:08
I was using kernel 3.16 I think, new one is 4.9
squigz 2017-02-01 11:42:13
That's pretty old
squigz 2017-02-01 11:42:20
Time to reboot, brb
squigz 2017-02-01 11:43:50
x-window-manager is still reporting 20TB
squigz 2017-02-01 11:43:55
I'd rather not try and launch a video
tomcres 2017-02-01 11:44:28
did you also install xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu and firmware-linux-nonfree from jessie-backports?
